were there to see 1t. As usual. the crowd was
an enthusiastic one. but the enthusiasm did
not show out until the latter part OF the game.
when the excitement became 80 intense that
the crowd fairly went wild.
Umpire Brady sent notice that he was sick
and could not offlciate. and Tim Keefe was
selected to umpire the game. Whether this
was a fatal mistake or not will be forever
mystery, but his blunders were enough to loso
any game. and they kept both clubs kicking
continually. He did not mean wrong; the
only trouble was that he was too afraid
that he would not give the visitors all
that were due them. and he made
tho home club suffer in moro cases than one.
1t was through his decision that the visitors
were not retired In order in tho fifth inning,
Five runs were made in this inning aiter this
